April 9, 2005 - The western side of New Jersey Avenue, north of M Street, home to the sleepy east entrance of the Navy Yard Metro station, along with a grassy knoll and St. Matthew's Church. Donohoe purchased much of the land in 2005, then added some small lots that WMATA owned as part of the Navy Yard Metro station east entrance, and finally added the since-razed St. Matthew's Church to the project footprint.
March 17, 2019 - The same location, now dominated by Insignia on M, with its festive logo.
Jan. 6, 2019 - Chase opened a branch in a retail space near the Metro entrance in late 2018, a few months after Peet's Coffee arrived.
April 14, 2018 - The building's first two retails tenant, Bethesda Bagels and Oath Pizza.
1111 New Jersey, Sliding from to April 2007 to June 2017
